A senior Antigua and Barbuda Defence Force (ABDF) officer testified before the High Court that a camouflage uniform recovered during the investigation into the murder of Customs official Nigel Christian could not have been acquired by civilians and must have originated from within the military.
According to Antigua News Room, the testimony was delivered on the 14th day of the ongoing murder trial, marking a significant development in proceedings that have drawn considerable public attention.
The officer's evidence suggests that the uniform — identified as a genuine ABDF-issued garment — represents a critical piece of material evidence in the case. The assertion that such a uniform could only have come from within military ranks raises serious questions about the circumstances surrounding Christian's death.
Nigel Christian, who served as a Customs official, was killed in a case that has gripped Antigua and Barbuda. The trial continues to unfold before the High Court as prosecutors and defence attorneys examine the evidence presented by witnesses.
